4 MONTHS!!!!!!

Wow where are the months going not that im complaining at all :) we have had a pretty tough last month. Not only are we trying to plan a wedding, honeymoon, work and take care of what needs to be taken care of but a month ago Jason found out that he was going to be getting his 7 year old daughter that he had no idea about and had never met. Jason's daughter Ashton has become a part of our family and we are very happy that she is with us now. She has had it tough and deserves to be in a family that cares and loves her. The mom will not be around b/c she was picked up for drugs and lost her kids. Jason and I have had a tough month. We have had tests done, people in and out of our house and making sure that the house is ready for a 7 year old girl. Jake is doing really well with it. Ashton calls him bubba and he calls her sissy from time to time. When we go to court the next time Jason is going to get Ashton's last name changed and as he is doing his we are going to get Jake's changed as well. Yes you guessed it Jason is going to adopt Jake.. I am thrilled Jason is the greatest and Jake has a great Daddy in his life...I will keep everyone informed about what is happening. We have a tough couple of months ahead of us plus we are trying to get her clothes, toys, etc. She had nothing so its like bringing an infant home for the first time. She is a great kid though it just breaks my heart because she doesnt know about alot of things because they didnt have a lot and she is struggling in school. She is 7 and in kindergarten still. We hope this summer we can work with her and help her where she is lacking the skills she needs to go to first grade and it didnt help either that she got moved around alot.. Well enough about that for now will update as things go on.

Well we are to the 4 month count down. I am getting so excited. I got my dress Tuesday and took it to moms house. It feels so true now that I have my dress. It is absolutely gorgeous and cant wait to wear it.. I have alterations in June because I am in the process of loosing weight so far I have lost a little but not where I want to be. I am going to a gym with Jason and the days I dont go to the gym i walk with my friend Sherri. So I am in the process it is just taking forever.. I wish I could lose weight like guys do..LOL.. Everything else is coming together. Mom is working on invitations so we can get them out in the mail soon..Jason and I are planning on doing engagement pics next month sometime so we will have some new pics to post. I know we were suppose to do it this month but we have had so much going on that we lost track of days...lol...I cant believe that my wedding is just around the corner. I cant wait for the day....

Jake is doing great. We are still in the process of potty training...it feels like its a never ending battle. We got the poo pooping in the potty its just the peeing that we havent conquered yet..He is growing up so fast. I dont know where the last 3 years have gone but they have flown it feels like. He is getting so smart. He likes to sing in the car now so we have to watch what is on the radio..lol... It is so cute to listein to him he will start singing and then he will make up his own song.. Its really cute to listein to him sing Taylor Swift, Love song,,,,I will have to record him next time he sings it, it is soooooo cute... Mom and Dad came to the house last weekend and Jake was so excited. He saw them pull in and I couldnt get the door open fast enough. He is a papaw (my dad) boy when he sees him. Thats all i heard about when they left. He loves is nana too dont get me wrong but him and his papaw have a special bond and it is so cute.. He knows he is going to get to see his uncle soon (hopefully) and he asks everyday if uncle chris is at nana's..He is all about his uncle. It seems that uncle chris is like that with little kids, they always look up to him..i have no idea why but they do...lol just look at my cousin Sean...lol...

Jason is doing well as well he is just working and doing the normal. We both are trying to get through this rough time and we have discovered that we have become stronger through all of this and as long as we have each other we can get through anything.....

Well thats all for this post for now. I am going to post some of our pictures from over the last couple of weeks. Hope you enjoy and its not much longer till the big day 119 days and counting....WOW!!!!!!!!
